Nor is your Great Leader....god knows how but he manages it

Cos he's a muppet - muppets are fun but you wouldn't want the country run by them

Pales in comparison to the current Muppet in number 10 and lets not forget the previous incumbant.

Yes. Just like every week. It remains a complete mystery why they're 25 points clear of Labour in the polls since they do so dreadfully on QT.

Yes, but that's when it's a relatively close call, say plus or minus 5%. Give me an example of when they've ever been this wrong (rhetorical question, you won't be able to).

Haha, Brillo is bearable...and one of the better on tv journalists (not that the standard is high), but I do like it when he can't batter his opponents when he is faced with someone who is more than an equal, intellectually and personality wise, go Ann!

You come across as quite desperate. Let's see the results tonight in a very working class area. Doubt they will back up all of these "OMG LABOUR ARE DOOMED 4EVER" claims you tediously bang on about.

Tenuous. Is that meant to be a lookalike comparison? They don't even look that similar. Hair and beard completely different.

Come on BC, up your game.

Well.... Labour are saying Stoke is a 3 way battle.

Are you thinking Labour will win both?

I'm hoping the Conservatives nick it but if labour hold it it will be close - too close for a labour seat that has been labour since 1950

You've got my best effort - he's a scruffy that has appeal only within the Islington elite

I concede that I can't match your efforts - I do wish Corbyn would put as much effort in as you do

The reality is Torys are in a no lose situation
1. If labour win it will be a drastically lower wining margin - a great result for Torys
2. Torys win - exceptional result
3. Torys efforts along with other party's cause Labour to lose - a result for Torys
4. Labour increase margin - that's as expected again not an issue for a sitting govt.

Under no circumstance can any result tonight be bad for Torys.
For labour anything but increasing is bad for them

This from the guy whose opening gambit in the thread tonight was the Tories getting a battering on QT tonight. No son, I'm not desperate, I'm simply pointing out a few facts about Comrade Corbyn and what a hopeless old fool he is.

For once I agree with JawKnee, your effort here is woeful. Jeremy Corbyn (left) looks nothing like Richard Stillgoe (right).

ZOMG! By-election history! Tories take Copeland!

So why, in yesterday's by-elections in traditional Labour areas, have Corbyn's mob clung onto one seat with a reduced majority, and lost the other to the governing party?

Jawknee stated in another thread that it was a sure thing for Labour on both seats his sources close to the info had shared with him.
Clearly not very reliable sources.
